III. Read the dialogue and answer the questions. You are not a Millionaire.

Mr. Frith:

I like this record player very much. How much does it cost, please?

Assistant:

It’s the most expensive model in the shop. It costs 34 pounds.

Mrs. Frith:

That’s too expensive for us. We can’t afford all that money.

Assistant:

This model’s less expensive than that. It’s only 28 pounds.

Mr. Frith:

I don’t like this model. The other model’s more expensive. However, it’s worth the money. Can we buy it on installments?

Assistant:

Of course. You can pay a deposit of ten pounds, and then one pound a week for sixty weeks.

Mr. Frith:

Do you like it, dear?

Mrs. Frith:

I certainly do, but I don’t like this price. You always want the best but we can’t afford it. Sometimes you think you are the millionaire!

Millionaires don’t buy things of installments.
